A Response to Jürgen Klopp’s Critics

Imagine, it’s August 2016. The anticipation has been building since the end of May, long gone are the summer internationals and the boredom of the long, empty summer weekends. The forward thinking clubs have done their business early, but the rumour mill has halted this past week, all that remains is that first whistle. Anfield's...

Adding Mettle & Metal to Klopp’s Rote Maschine

Some parts of Jurgen Klopp’s Rote Maschine are still on the production line, but during the past few weeks there have been signs that some of the components are finally coming together. Devils in the Detail Following a run of games which saw Liverpool regularly playing twice a week, the week break between the two Europa...

Luis Alberto: Option or Auction?

For many Luis Alberto Romero is one of the personifications of the failings of Liverpool’s transfer committee. He was acquired as Brendan Rodgers put it back then because he had the “correct football profile and mentality to be a Liverpool player”. However, together with Iago Aspas, they became one of the pointless transfers for...

Can Origi be Liverpool’s Lewandowski?

When Jurgen Klopp was appointed as Liverpool manager at the beginning of October many fans took to social media to give their thoughts on how the current squad could replicate how the mentalist German set up his successful Dortmund side. One of the favourite comparisons was that £32.5 million man Christian Benteke would be Liverpool's...

Top 4? It’s the hope that kills you!

Top 4? It's the hope that kills you! I watched something happen to this Liverpool team over the past week. They went to Wembley and after a slow start and falling behind, ended up running Manchester City down to the wire. But sadly, it was not to be. The Liverpool performance in the Final, whilst better,...

Liverpool’s Attack Back On Track

The general consensus is that Liverpool need to sign another striker this summer. A guaranteed goal-getter to get the pulses racing inside Anfield and leave opposition defences quaking with fear. However, the Reds currently have four international strikers fully fit for the first time this season and the upturn in goalscoring form makes for good...

Oddities and Aggression Reignite Liverpool’s Season

From its opening shots back in Summer 2015, this season has been one of the most unpredictable ever seen. Even now, as we roll through March, nothing is certain. Oh, unless you’re a Villa fan that is. As a supporter I’ve never experienced anything like it. I mean we’ve all seen blips in the usually predictable...

Liverpool In Control At Anfield

Daniel Sturridge and Roberto Firmino were the heroes against Manchester United as their goals in either half helped Liverpool to a two nil lead in the first leg of their Europa League clash at Anfield. Manchester United had goalkeeper David De Gea to thank as he pulled off world class save after save to...

Revenge Part II – Observations from Liverpool’s win vs United

It's as close to a perfect first leg in a European competition as you'll see. It was the sort of performance many Liverpool fans came to expect when Liverpool were dominating Europe; the home clean sheet and a few goals to take into the second leg. It was almost perfection with only David De...

Liverpool 2 Manchester United 0: Player Ratings

As dominating a performance as one could hope for as Liverpool scored two goals without a response in what could be termed as a one-sided first leg. Liverpool absolutely bossed the game from start to finish and carry a satisfactory two goal advantage into the return leg. A clean sheet is a big boost...

The LFC turnaround under Klopp – Stoppage time Victories

Jurgen Klopp arrived at Liverpool and in his very first press conference he stated he wanted to turn 'doubters into believers'. The German spoke from the heart much like he always does and even though this phrase was aimed towards the fans who, towards the latter period of Rodgers' reign had turned cynical to...

Sturridge and Origi provide a striking difference

I don’t need to explain to anyone with a modicum of football knowledge just how big a Liverpool versus Manchester United game is and emotions usually run very high for these encounters. However, the overriding emotion for me from the Premier League meetings between the two sides both this season and last has been...

Liverpool Squad Analysis, Part 2: The Midfield

Following the League Cup final defeat to Manchester City, various reports were made of a potential clear-out at Liverpool FC this summer and invariably the possibility of a whole roster of incoming new signings, prompting this three part mini-series looking at the Liverpool squad; specifically, who is anticipated to remain in the squad, and also who...

No Emre, No Party

It's Sunday the 28th February, Liverpool's have just battled back to play extra time against Manchester City in the League Cup Final, then face the nerve wrecking agony of Penalties. The first player to step up is Emre Can. He looks calm and composed, with no signs of fatigue or tiredness. Instead of going...

When Two Tribes Go To War…

When the Reds set off on their latest European campaign six months ago it’s fair to say no one was overly inspired by a trip to the south-western France. Let’s be honest, the early stages of the Europa league with its Thursday/Sunday grind doesn’t exactly get the pulse racing in the autumn. There’s the...

Illustrating Liverpool’s Pressing Vs Man City & Crystal Palace

We've been collecting Pressing Stats since 2013 on Anfield Index and after watching Manchester City get demolished last Wednesday at Anfield I expected a torrid time when manually collecting these pressing stats. My hunch was pretty much spot on against Manchester City, Liverpool's pressing effort was one of the highest of all time as they pressed the...

Four Key Talking Points Ahead of Liverpool vs Man Utd

Manchester United arrive at Anfield this Thursday for the first leg of the club’s Europa League clash against their fiercest of rivals. Given that the match marks the first European encounter between the two iconic clubs of English football, the attention the tie will garner is immediately understandable. However, though once standard bearers for the...

A Tactical Look at Emre Can Against Crystal Palace

If you were to ask Liverpool fans for a review of Emre Can's season the answers would vary from uninspired and lacklustre to commanding and captain-in-waiting. This isn't because Emre Can has been inconsistent, make no mistake about it his performances haven't been consistently good, but more so to do with the fact half...

Jurgen’s Army: Fighting On All Fronts

On Sunday 6th March 2016, Liverpool Football Club achieved something that they had not managed to do in Premier League history. In fact, something that no club had done in the league before. Ever. A landmark for English football. What was it? To win a match from a goal AND a man down. Once...

Palace fume – all Bent(eke) out of shape

Bask in it. Allow yourself this moment. Warm up these cold March days with the fume that Liverpool generated with the stoppage time win over Crystal Palace. Christian Benteke has been a much maligned figure since his £32 million move from Aston Villa in the summer of 2015, but against Palace he united the fan base...

Liverpool Edge Past Crystal Palace

Christian Benteke came off the bench yesterday and proved to be Liverpool's hero after he converted a last minute penalty to give Liverpool all three points at Selhurst Park. Liverpool played their third game in a week on Sunday against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. With Palace being somewhat of a bogey team for Liverpool...

Observations from Liverpool’s 2-1 win against Crystal Palace

At what has been akin to a graveyard for Liverpool recently, the Reds managed to recover from being a goal and a man down to win the game with virtually the last kick, with Christian Benteke calmly slotted a penalty away in the dying embers of the game as Crystal Palace continued their horrific...

Crystal Palace 1 Liverpool 2: Player Ratings

For a change, it was Liverpool who inflicted heartbreak on Crystal Palace as a soft penalty in extra-time meant Liverpool came away with three points at Selhurst Park, after what seems like aeons. Surprisingly, Liverpool seemed more spirited once they were down to ten men and were duly rewarded with some long awaited luck. This...

Liverpool Squad Analysis, Part 1: The Defence

Following the failure in the League Cup final, Jürgen Klopp revealed in an interview that, “We have to change a lot of things to be successful... we can't be successful just because of the history of the club or the name of the manager or the names of the players.” Not only this, but the club...

A Disservice To Henderson

At the risk of sounding too negative here, but am I the only one that feels that since Jordan Henderson has returned from injury in January Jürgen Klopp has done him a great disservice by playing him as often as he has? (I am not having a go at Klopp, he is the Liverpool...

Henderson and Can – Struggling in a ‘2’?

Amidst mediocre performances against the likes of Augsburg in the Europa League and Manchester City in the Capital One Cup finals, the midfield (or lack of) has been the biggest topic when it comes to pinpointing the flaws of the Klopp-influenced Liverpool side. A high-calibre midfield sets the tone for the rest of the...

Divock Origi – Staking A Claim

After another impressive display by the talented young Belgium, Divock Origi is finally gaining the plaudits and attention, his performances have deserved. Whilst he didn't quite grab the headlines in the emphatic 3-0 victory vs Manchester City, he added some much needed strength, power and direct running to a front line that was decidedly...

Can Piotr Zielinski Become Klopp’s Latest Polish Sensation?

There is something special between Polish players and Jurgen Klopp. Lukas Piszczek, Jakub Błaszczykowski, Robert Lewandowski all have developed into great players under the guidance of the former Dortmund boss and all of them have been relatively unknown figures within the football world before they joined him at Westfalenstadion. With Liverpool now being heavily linked with a  move for...

Jon Flanagan – Liverpool’s Tony Hibbert?

No. Wait a minute. Lay down your pitchforks and stop digging that hole to put a stake in. A comparison to Everton cult hero Tony Hibbert isn't an insult. Well, not entirely. Momentarily put aside your preconceptions of the player and look at the bigger picture. The full-back was reliable; he always gave his all...

A Case For Lazar Marković

Like Portuguese defender Tiago Ilori before him, Serbian winger Lazar Marković has become one of Liverpool's forgotten men this season. As an out and out winger Marković was the last player fans expected to see loaned out this season especially with Jordan Ibe being Liverpool's only other out and out winger in the 2015/2016...
